Doesn't stay electrically connected to USB port

Worthless crap. When I move my head even an inch, the headset somehow loses connection to USB port and audio goes back to the computer... I tried this across 4 different computers and the same issue occurs. DO NOT BUY!

I get that that color e-ink is still fairly new; however, I would suggest waiting. The colors are still washed out and The image isn't wiped clean enough for color. Note taking is decent. I can get the image to clear; however, it takes me clicking a refresh. I would actually prefer the software to add a little more time to the page switch and do that refresh automatically!!! vs. me having to do it manually every page turn!!!

Introducing Nintendo Switch, the new home video game system from Nintendo. In addition to providing single and multiplayer thrills at home, the Nintendo Switch system can be taken on the go so players can enjoy a full home console experience anytime, anywhere. The mobility of a handheld is now added to the power of a home gaming system, with unprecedented new play styles brought to life by the two new Joy-Con controllers.PLAY ANYWHEREAt home the system rests in the Nintendo Switch dock, which lets you play with family and friends on a TV in the comfort of your living room.By simply lifting Nintendo Switch from the dock at any time, the system instantly transitions to handheld mode, and the same great gaming experience that was being enjoyed at home now travels with you. The portability of Nintendo Switch is enhanced by its 6.2-inch screen, which displays bright, high-definition gameplay at the park, on an airplane, in a car, or at a friend's apartment.Nintendo Switch comes with two Joy-Con that can each act as a standalone controller with an analog stick, a full complement of face and shoulder buttons, built in motion-sensing technology and new HD Rumble. They can be inserted into a Joy-Con grip accessory to be used like a traditional controller, held comfortably in each hand for independent left and right motion controls, or shared between two players for instant multiplayer gaming in front of the TV or out on the go.This bundle includes the Nintendo Switch console and Nintendo Switch dock in black, and left and right Joy~Con controllers in a contrasting gray. It also includes all the extras you need to get started.

Make the most of every day with the sleek style, performance, and all-day battery life~ you need in the lightest Surface Laptop, all at an exceptional value. Ultra-light and portable profile, the apps* you use every day, premium materials, and a choice of must-have colors will make this your go-to laptop. ~Up to 13 hours of battery life based on typical Surface device usage. Testing conducted by Microsoft in September 2020 using preproduction software and preproduction configurations of Surface Laptop Go Testing consisted of full battery discharge with a mixture of active use and modern standby. The active use portion consists of (1) a web browsing test accessing 8 popular websites over multiple open tabs, (2) a productivity test utilizing Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel and Outlook, and (3) a portion of time with the device in use with idle applications. All settings were default except screen brightness was set to 150nits with Auto-Brightness disabled. Wi-Fi was connected to a network. Battery life varies significantly with settings, usage and other factors.

I like these, they are a touch slow and memory size is too small so can only load about 10 -15 applications. The new install process is much easier than using the TV.

Why does Google even pretend to have customer service? I have had an issue for > 3 weeks, issue escalated to higher level; however, NO one contacts me and there is no way to get anyone to help now as if I call they just "resubmit" issue, NEVER CONTACT!!!

Powerful. Easy to use. Versatile. The new iPad has a beautiful 10.2-inch Retina display, powerful A13 Bionic chip, an Ultra Wide front camera with Center Stage, and works with Apple Pencil and the Smart Keyboard.~ iPad lets you do more, more easily. All for an incredible value.
 

What does it mean when it says unlocked

It means that if you want to add the ability to use data across a phone companies data lines (that will cost extra per month charged by the phone service)it will work with any supported company. So as long as the phone company can support IPADs on their 4G network you can get a SIM card from that company and use their data service.
If you only plan to use Wifi, then this is not relevant.

By installing eufy Security Smart Lock Touch & Wi-Fi, you will never have to worry about losing your key again and always have secure access to your home. The Smart Lock is powered by a Mabuchi motor that allows you to unlock your front door in less than a second. With a sensor area that is two times larger than on a smartphone, the Smart Lock is less likely to miss your fingerprint. Every time you unlock Smart Lock, the recognition rate improves because of the self-learning AI chip. This Smart Lock is weatherproof with an IP65 rating, so you can rest assured that your home is always secure. The Smart Lock is tested to last for 250,000 unlocks and is designed to still function after 30 years of use.
 

How many keys does the lock come with?

5 physical keys, and there is no way you will be able to get more made at a hardware store!!! Not sure if there is a way for Eufy to reference your S/N and get more that would work???

Can the lock be programmed to lock at a certain time, so that the key, fingerprint, or passcode won’t open it until it’s scheduled unlock time? I hope that makes sense

Not a lock out for the whole system; however, ALL but the main "person" can be scheduled to not work at certain times. So currently one person's info will always work but you have the ability to shut off ALL others' code/fingerprint,

Does it notify you when and who used the door

Yes, as long as you setup each user differently. I.e. each user requires a different access code and fingerprints and then it will work. It both sends notifications as well as keeps a log in the phone app.

Yes and no, it depends on useage. For the main access there does seem to CURRENTLY have the option for a schedule; however, for additional people/guests, setting a schedule is available. I have NOT tried this, but note I am currently having issues with setting the autolock schedule (it looks like the time is off between my phone and the device), so not sure if that would be the case on the shceduled access or not. But I do expect that this will get fixed with some software updates...
